A Tipperary library will be the venue for free heart health checks this weekend

The Irish Heart Foundation Mobile Unit will visit Cashel Library to offer free blood pressures and pulse checks this Saturday, August 16 from 10.30am to 3pm.

The visit of the mobile unit is happening in association with the Irish Heart Foundation and Healthy Ireland at your Library.  

The Mobile Health Unit has two private consultation rooms with a nurse available in each room to provide heart health information and do free blood pressure and pulse checks.

The one-to-one advice offered by the nurse is a vital part of this check. Each person receives a personal record card with their results and in the event of any abnormal results is advised to follow up with their GP.
